A rubbish bin for cyclists on the move. This is on a cycle-path near a school in Assen. Making throwing rubbish into a bin into a "fun" thing to do probably helps to avoid litter. The bin is called a "blikvanger". This usually means "eye ... [more]
Cyclehoops are designed to be installed on street furniture. Designer Anthony Lau says this reduces street clutter by using existing structures rather than adding more and makes installing them fast - Anthony says he can put in 20 in a day. ... [more]
The centre of Hoogeveen. Post war reconstruction rebuilt this area on American lines as a wide boulevard for cars. Now it's a much more pleasant, more liveable space. Watch the video to see more. A similar example from Nijmegen can ... [more]
Rounded A cycle parking alongside the Guildhall. This picture was used in Central Government literature about cycle parking.
Assen at night at -2 C. Plenty of ice on the grass and the canal is completely frozen over, but the well lit cycle paths are completely free of ice as they always are right through the winter. More photos and a video of riding in these c ... [more]
Cycle hoop. Anthony is a trainee architect who is also a cyclist. And a cyclist who has had a bike stolen by thieves who lifted it off the top of the pole he had 'secured' it to. Anthony has subsequently designed the Cyclehoop http://ww ... [more]
Cycling across the Afsluitdijk. This is a sea defence 32 km long which separates the IJsselmeer from the North Sea and joins North Holland to Friesland. A very good quality cycle path is provided all the way along the dyke. You can see a ... [more]
"Tegelijk groen" indicates that cyclists have their own green phase at these traffic lights and that they're allowed to travel in any direction on a green - including diagonal, which is demonstrated in the video. Its is less obvious that ... [more]
The clever way to travel down Milton Road in rush hour. Some people prefer to queue for road space, others prefer to cycle...
Possible solution for Gilbert Road in Cambridge. Even those of us on the Assen trip who strongly dislike off-road cycleways liked this very much. It had a feel of an on-road path but had some segregation.
This cycle path is being resurfaced so one lane of the road has been taken from drivers as a temporary cycle path while works continue. Note that there is also a cycle path on the opposite side of the road, but cyclists are not told to c ... [more]
Due to extensive road works, some roads in Assen can't currently be driven down. This style of temporary road sign shows which. However, despite the inconvenience to drivers, it has been ensured that cyclists can continue to use those route ... [more]
The Tegelijk Groen sign tells you that all the green cycle lights will go green at once and you can cross in any direction (even diagonally). If you watch the video you'll see how this leads directly to a newly upgraded road. Note how th ... [more]
Most things to do with bikes are legal in the Netherlands, including cycling with Fido on the bike path. Why should dogs miss out on the fun ? Cycling with two dogs at the same time is considered to be a bit more than the average person ... [more]
It's the 21st of December, -4 C, about half past mid-day on a working day. The bike racks are more than full as usual. Watch the video to get an idea of how many cyclists you see here, even on cold days. The paths have, of course, all be ... [more]
Awkward pram-handles removed after complaints over several years by the Campaign - success! This junction point is now much easier to pass for both cyclists and walkers. Compare with before: #9023
One of many small paths in an area of mixed heath and forest just a couple of minutes cycle from the city of Assen. Anyone can escape the city and get out into some greenery on their bikes with ease. While all these paths are well surfac ... [more]
Four metre wide cycle path past an industrial estate. Very wide and well used, even at the weekend. Note the racing cyclist coming in the opposite direction. People ride such bikes at speed on these paths quite freely because they are go ... [more]
Simon demonstrating how to take a spare bike home and keep both hands on the handlebars.
An old ferry converted into a vast cycle park with double decker cycle racks behind Amsterdam Central station.
Multi-storey cycle park outside the central station in Amsterdam. See inside at #11401. See photomap tips at: http://www.camcycle.org.uk/map/location/help/addphoto/#tips
Sign indicating a "Bicycle Road". The "local traffic only" was changed in 2008 to "cars and motorbikes free" (see #14573). This route into town from the west is mixed use (residents and bicycles) with priority for the cycle road and specia ... [more]
Inside this amazing bike shop in Bergen Norway. Hundreds upon hundreds of bikes, a sit down coffee area and video presentation suite. I was amazed to discover another floor below with thousands more bikes, and a ramp to a mezzanine with a ... [more]
A clear message on a sign in Florida a little way North of Daytona Beach which a number of British motorists could do with taking on board.
Unusual cycling on Milton Road. A unicyclists on his way to work on the Science Park. No brakes but front and rear lights.
Cyclists' Brack: === Simon, Nigel, Clare and I have decided to constitute ourselves an informal cake research subgroup. At the time we were sampling an Irish brack or tea-cake (so called because it's made with tea, not for tea) which my m ... [more]
There are many cycle routes in Kings Hedges. They are not all wide enough or smooth enough, but they score well for pervasiveness.
Lots of kids cycling home from school in Eindhoven. Decent quality cycle paths make this possible all over the Netherlands. Note also the patience of drivers. You can see more examples of children cycling in the Netherlands here: http ... [more]
Amongst the highest quality cycle parking in Cambridge, outside the computer laboratory on the West Cambridge Site. Features: covered cycle racks on a hard surface, lit at night, and looks amazing.
A fabulous bike shop in Great Tichfield Street. Called velorution their website is at http://www.velorution.biz/
Double decker cycle parking near a metro station somewhere in Copenhagen. This clever cycle parking really packs the bikes in - I've yet to see this anywhere else, and sadly I can't remember the exact location where I took this image, wa ... [more]
A nice, smooth, new blacktop surface has just been laid on one of the worst stretches of the Granchester Meadows path. It is a shame that the opportunity was not taken to widen the path at the same time. It is much too narrow for comfor ... [more]
No Motor Vehicles except for access - and cycle route - in new housing development, Harrogate

Possible route for the Chisholm Trail on the western (city centre) side of the railway track by the station. Picture taken from underneath Carter Bridge, looking north towards the arches under Mill Road bridge. For a similar view from above ... [more]
Altrincham Sainsburys Supermarket 4 stands out in the open and 3 under cover all near the entrance with good signage
The 16th century long gallery at Haddon Hall. Apparently these things were built for young ladies to promenade getting some exercise but not too much sunlight. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haddon_Hall
To answer one query about the trials of two-tier parking at Cambridge station, yes, on this model at least there is an attachment to lock the frame to.
The two-tier cycle stands on trial at Cambridge station seem to have not just replaced some existing Sheffield stands, but also taken some car park space.
See clip at http://youtu.be/p9SfPNv5ElQ The famous jersey seen on the south section of the Guided Busway Cyclepath near Addenbrookes.
New cycle parking stands to provide additional capacity at popular city centre location (see #31412)
Entrance to Dean Castle Country Park from Assloss Road, signed as a cycle route. Some of the other paths aren't surfaced.
See clip http://youtu.be/XkjkVRj5Rug This is less to do with the parking, although there are probably laws being broken. It's more to do with cycling postively to stop bad behaviour, which resulted in none, by any oncoming traffic.
Cambridge Station Cycle Parking Test new double decker cycle parking. The upper racks pull out, then can be dropped to a 45 degree angle for bikes to be removed. The near row has no piston to assist tipping the upper racks the f ... [more]
Two-tier cycle racks installed at Cambridge station 1-5-2012. The notice alongside suggests that this is part of a scheme to replace some or all of the existing stands.
